Climate andGeographic Setting
Te moche heartland overied a narrow strip of desert between thee Pacific Ocean and thee western slopes of thee Andes, a region that receives less than 20 mm of rainfall annually. Despite this extreme dryness, thee area supported a thriving agricultural civilization things to two key environmental facirures: the Humboldt Current and sezonol ruff fm thee Andes.

This delicate balance made te Moche highly shinable to climatic oscillations. The El Niño -Southern Oscillation (ENSO) played a specilarly critical role. During El Niño events, warm water replaces the cold Humboldt Current, bringing torrential rains andd fooding to thee coast coast, followed by prolonged droughts that could last years.

Thee Decline of thee Moche: A Climate-Driven Collapse?
Around 700 AD, thee Moche civilization entered a steep decline. Many of their major ceremonial centers - Huaca del Sol, Huaca de la Luna, and El Brujo - were abandone or fell into disuse. What caused this fallse? While internal warfare and social usteaval also played roles, climate change appears to have been a contribuant akcelerator.
